I look up at the sky and see the stars shinning oh so brightly. It looks like a city, the city where I want to be. The escape from the real world, that's what I see.

The author's comments:
I was laying under the stars, lost in my mind again. I was thinking about the fact that I have this whole other world in my head I escape to. When I looked up it was like the stars formed this whole world in front of me. I really hope this relates to other people and that they have this whole other world they escape to when reality seems impossible.
